Program Description
In New Hampshire, approximately 95% of our farms qualify as small farms by USDA definition. Consequently, our Extension programs cover a wide variety of areas that benefit small farms, including livestock and specialty crop management, marketing, agricultural alternatives and enterprise diversification, business and tax management, farm transfer and estate planning, and soil fertility management.

Specific activities that address these general program efforts are numerous. Examples include a nutrient management program that assists farmers in significant reduction in nitrogen and phosphorus use; publications and workshops to help farmers adopt market alternatives that can lead to increased sales and profits; and farm business and financial planning programs that assist farm families in meeting immediate needs as well as transition of business assets.
